1. Stud-Net's Accessibility Commitment
Stud-Net (the "Site", "we", "us") regards the accessibility of its website as a core value and works continuously to enable all members of the public - including people with disabilities - to make full, independent, dignified, and equal use of the site's services and content.
Accessibility is implemented in accordance with the Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities Law, 1998 and the Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities Regulations (Service Accessibility), 2013 (the "Accessibility Regulations") and Israeli Standard IS 5568, which corresponds to W3C WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

4. Limitations and Third-Party Content
Despite our efforts to make the entire site accessible at Level AA, certain pages, content, or elements may not be fully accessible, due to:
- Third-party content - content from external sources (WhatsApp, Telegram, LinkedIn, Facebook, Google, Netlify) is outside our control.
- Community-uploaded content - messages and study materials uploaded by community members may not always conform to IS 5568.
- Historical PDFs - older archive documents may not meet the standard. An accessible version of any specific document can be requested from the accessibility coordinator.
- Beta features - site sections marked "Coming Soon", "In Development", or "Beta" may be temporarily limited in accessibility until full launch.

6. Limitation of Liability
This statement documents the reasonable measures we take to comply with applicable accessibility standards. Despite these efforts, we cannot guarantee that every detail of the site is, at every moment, fully compliant with IS 5568, due to ongoing content updates, third-party components, and possible technological failures.
Identifying an accessibility issue is not, in itself, grounds for an automatic claim. We ask the public to allow a reasonable period (at least 5 business days) for us to address any inquiry before initiating further proceedings, as required by law.
This document does not constitute a contractual obligation and does not derogate from the provisions of the Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities Law and its regulations. In case of conflict between this document and the law - the law prevails.
